who Was It?

Now the Winston people, says the Green's
boro North State, enjoy joke very well.
Some weeks ago one of the fair daughters Of
that busy town was in Greensboro. The
young men got out the story on her that
when she was about to cross the railroad she
became alarmed and hesitated; and when
she saw a locomotive she was terrified and
wanted to know if it was dangerous. No
eyil designs on Winston in telling this. The
voting lady enjoyed it, and said that even
an intelligent effort of that magnitude could
not bring Greensboro within whispering dis.
tiance of Winston as live city. Neither is
there any damage done in telling this on oul
yonng men.

John Simison came before the council
making complaint that the former street
commissioner had wrongfully returned y
taxofeighty-two cents forremoving snow
from the sidewalk last winter along his
property in block z Burt's addition to
Lancaster. 1t was decided to look into
the matter and see what could be done.
The committee on streets and side
walks to whom had been referred the
petition in regard to building a walk to
the cemetery, reported favorably and
made an estimate of the cost. The
necessity of such walk having been
well considered by the council it was
decided to comply with the petition.
All the members voting in the affirmative
it was decided that three foot walk be
built, said walk to begin at the south
west corner of Nelson Thomas property
running thence east across the other side
of the creek, provided that at least one
half of cost of building be raised in cash
on this years road tax which otherwise
would be paid IN work.
Upon motion four foot sidewalk was
ordered to be built from the northeast
cornor of block % to the southeast corner
of said block, being from the northeast
corner of VIM. Z. Stones property to
the south east corner of the Catholic
church, provided, however, that money
for the lumber to construct said walk be
also raised in cash payment on road
taxes.
The following claims were audited,
allowed and ordered paid, to wit: T..
b. Sherman, repairing cemetery fence,
work and material, $13.43. F. b.
Phelps, one month marshal's salary
S12. So
G. c. Charles supplies for street lamps
and express charges $3.50. There
being sufficient funds in the treasury TO
pay $1,000 on the McLymans judg-
ment, an order was drawn for said
amount on the treasurer in favor of Geo.
w. Ryland to apply as aforesaid.
No further business being brought
forward for consideration the council
adjourned.
